Suunto Nautic User Guide

Automatic dive start

Suunto Nautic has an automatic start functionality that recognizes pressure increase and water contact. The device enters dive state from the surface screen or from any other device screen:

  • When in contact with water and the absolute pressure equals to your set dive start depth (the default start depth is 1.2 m / 4 ft).
  • Or if no water contact is recognizable but the absolute pressure equals to your set dive start depth (the default start depth is 1.2 m / 4 ft) + 1.8 m (5.9 ft).

Scuba dives automatically end after the set Dive end time (the default time is 5 min) and when:

  • When in contact with water and the absolute pressure equals to or is less than your set dive start depth (the default start depth is 1.2 m / 4 ft).
  • Or if no water contact is recognizable but the absolute pressure equals to or is less than your set dive start depth (the default start depth is 1.2 m / 4 ft) + 1.8 m (5.9 ft).

If submerged from any non-diving screen, Suunto Nautic automatically enters the dive mode you have last configured.

NOTE:

The Dive start depth can be defined under Dive settings.

WARNING:

The automatic dive start is a precaution feature. We recommend that you always confirm your gas and dive settings before the dive.
